Montreal Airport

It is 7am in Montreal as I write this. My Albertan family and friends are probably still sleeping soundly as 5am is a little early for most. I say most because I know a few people that possibly could be up, by choice or by force:-)
Well, my longing to see my family in Quebec was satiated somewhat this past week. Occasionally, visiting just makes it worse but not this time. I am so fortunate to have been able to spend some time with my Dad. I love him very much and the time we spent together was excellent. What an opportunity to be able to see beautiful and wonderful Claudia, handsome and smart Carter, mischievous and energetically sweet Samuel, little and most terrific Kate. My nieces and nephews that I do not get to be with as often as I'd like, definitely not near as often as I'd like. Their parents are a blessing to me as well. It does not matter how much time passes between visits, in the company of Evan and Jennifer or of Christopher and Claudia, I will always feel welcome and at home. Thx.
Church on Sunday at Church at the Elm was uplifting and purposeful. It is so great to see God's hand at work consistently from across the country. A lady spoke about her trip to Rwanda and it just made my heart glad due to the Word of Life investment in Africa, the lives that are literally being rebuild from nothing. The Children being cared for physically and healed spiritually. With Pastor John going to Kenya, Rwanda and the Congo, we as Word of Life Sundre can be a part of that rebuilding and hope. What a great thing to help in!! :-).
Well, Looks like I will be boarding soon... Until later.
